Design and Kinematics of a Dielectric Elastomer Actuated Micro Dragonfly Robot
Dragonflies fly in a unique way compared to other hovering insects. Soft robotics are used to learn more about their flapping motion. An at-scale dragonfly robot is designed around Dielectric Elastomer Actuators that compress and expand 0.5mm. With this knowledge, MATLAB was used to predict the link...
